I got my connection back at 8:05 am and I searched thru some of my old posts asap and just found 4 posts which somewhat met the criteria of the challenge (or maybe not) and put together an entry by 8:56am (11 minutes after your post) and sent it to you asap and at 9am I lost the connection again 
Now I get to know I could've used 24 more hours. Oh whale

Yes, absolutely!
The entire point of a pride parade is to, well, have pride! Its a celebratory affair for embracing who you are and enjoying life while in the company of people of all kinds. Where I live, regardless of your orientation or any other factor, people go to the pride parade just to have fun. That very fact is reason enough to have pride because it shows how far we have come as a society and how brilliant it is that everyone can come together as a community while also raising awareness for more acceptance and tolerance and also campaigning for LGBTQ rights.

There is a LOT that could be covered in Canadian History but it just isn't.
Colonization/treatment of First Nations
Residential Schools/cultural genocide of First Nations
Internment Camps for Japanese residents after WWII
Blockades to immigration and Chinese Head Tax for Asian and later Caribbean immigrants
The Canadian Railway systems and the unification of Canada
Quebec separatist movements (probably covered in Quebec but not so much in other provinces)
Instead we learn about the gold rush and the Hudson Bay fur company 10 times and then transition into our roles in the world wars a further 5 times.

Originally posted by lovesong on advice for entering college/university
It's important to do the research necessary for what your prospective major is because sometimes you need to take certain things into account like scheduling and making sure you manage the right pre-reqs BUT don't let it overwhelm you or stress you out. Meet with advisors, the good ones are rare but they really help and it can be very stressful to handle all this so any help you can get is good.
Also don't worry about changing your major, I've changed my specialization three times now until I finally found something that works for me. I'd recommend spending your first year taking a wide variety of classes that interest you so that you can fully realize your strengths and can determine what you'd like to have as your major. I honestly wish I did this because it wasn't until the last semester in my second year that I took a class that I loved and now I've decided to do my minor in that subject which means I have to do a bit of catchup.
Don't worry about graduating in four years. I'm taking an extra year, and a lot of people I've talked to have taken one or even two years. Remember that university/college is also about learning and the experience itself, take what interests you and don't worry about perceived ideas of what you should be doing. After all you are the one paying for this so it is important that you actually care about what you're doing.
Lastly I'd say get involved around campus as much as possible. I was really shy at first and hesitant to do anything but after volunteering and other on-campus activities I've really opened up and my overall experience has greatly improved. Trust me, its a good way to not only get experience but also make the most of your time there.
That's the advice I have so far. The first year was really awkward for me but now that I've gotten used to things and experienced some triumphs and fails I really feel a lot better about university. Have fun!  |

If you know me, then you know I keep everything short and sweet. That's kind of what i'm going with here. I don't write paragraphs, essays, etc. This is my posting style, which reflects who I am in this competition.
My first example comes to you as a way to clock DOM for not picking me to play Les atrlers all stars. I brought up my point and kept it classy for once.

Well I can say I wasn't contacted.
While my ass played hard, worked hard, and fought hard the entire time. Playing a game unlike anyone else, more of a social game (which I took advantage of last season) and my entries being in the top 5 a good amount of the time. Placing 3rd. But that's coo |
When judging a game you will always be questioned for your choices. My next example shows how to gather a girl who questions your judgement. While keeping it cute (like usual<3)

A little bit of both. Your theme, like I said, I thought it was nice and different. However, the songs were boring imo. I mean honestly there was just too much going on with your entry, that's what you should be worried about. Everything felt scattered, and the songs did not make me like it anymore. And when judging the songs, I judged based on how I felt the songs felt the theme. Both sonically and lyrically. Like for example- the Yellow team picked Teenage Dream. I hate Katy, but that song is definitely light and airy. It fit, it worked well. Your songs just didn't feel like they fit. Not my cup of tea!! But we're all entitled to our different opinions. This is just a bump in the road and I know you'll do better.

I don't know? Your transparency sure is funny. Every single time someone brings up a point, proving that he IS a legend you're quick to shoot it down. The fact of the matter is, Tony is a legend. And nothing you have to say will deny this. He's had an amazing career, proving doubters wrong every time. Lawd ATRL is too much at times.

Carly wrote 200+ songs for Emotion. It kinda would have been a tragic embarrassment if she was unable to put together a decent, well-recieved album after all that.  |
Example 2: The Numbers Don't Lie (Unless You're Lana Del Rey)

Originally posted by JakeKills, in # of weeks your favorites last album spent charting?
Her current album, 1989, has spent 41 weeks in the top 10 to date.
Her last album, Red, has spent 121 weeks on the Billboard 200 to date.

Shakespeare is considered the greatest writer in the history of the English language while Rolling Stone would have me believe that Mariah Carey isn't even one the top one hundred best songwriters of all time. Tough call.  |

Not when just in the past week there have been countless headlines from various music, film, fashion, feminist, and gay media outlets with headlines that are some variation of "Meryl Streep covers Bad Romance." Is Meryl singing anyone else's "completely forgotten" songs? Or even their remembered songs, for that matter?
